Dallas Stars 2019-2020 Season Thread

[Beau Vine 54432]

Janmark looks like we gave Roman Polak a #13 jersey and told him to play forward.

[Beau Vine 54432]

Had almost no aggression the whole game. 

Yeah, but weren't you expecting it coming out for the 3rd?

[Firemans4Horn 18123]

This is just ugly hockey. 

[shadow_operative2.0 16029]

Alright, gotta fucking convert here. 

[C-Man 27262]

Major league high stick there. Wow. Dickinson might be concussed.

[Beau Vine 54432]

Need some blood.

[dcar00 14367]

why not 4 minutes

To be fair, that was pretty badass. Also why they've been sucking 29's dick so much.

But we came out for the 3rd with zero aggression.

Completely... Now just wishing the Stars didn't help him up on the pedestal.

[Beau Vine 54432]

why not 4 minutes

Because he wasn't cut = 2nd dumbest rule in hockey.

 

[C-Man 27262]

Ballgame

[dcar00 14367]

we needed a goal there.

[Jive Turkey 12644]

Our best offense is from defensemen. 

Shit coaching decision to start Bishop in game 5 and our top line is useless. 

[Beau Vine 54432]

we needed a goal there.

Should have been a shooting gallery on AHL goalie, but no...and now he has confidence.

[C-Man 27262]

In some ways this game is more head-scratching than the last. You could blame the Bishop start and atrocious play partly to the Avs going balls-to-wall in elimination game and after getting down huge early, played well. This has been shit from the beginning, 1-0 lead notwithstanding. Last change. More Avs hurt and again the third-string goalie. Embarrassing.

 

[shadow_operative2.0 16029]

Mother fucker. Drive home safely. 

[cactusflinthead 27603]

And I'll see y'all Friday night 

This has been big bag of suck

[crum 525]

our streaky team. game 7 against a confident team ugh

[Jive Turkey 12644]

See you boys Friday night. Hope the offense shows up. 

[Firemans4Horn 18123]

Janmark fucking sucks. Why is he on the ice when we’re down 2?

 

shitty fucking gameplan/coaching/effort/leadership the last 2 games. 

[Skipper 6202]

Absolutely fucking pathetic.  Nothing to say that I'm sure hasn't already been said in this game but what an absolutely embarrassing performance in back to back close out games.  Flat out didn't show up at all for Game 5.  Now tonight take stupid penalty after stupid penalty and our top line is a god damn disaster.   Benn and Seguin contribute absolutely nothing yet again in a big game.   Fucking frauds.

[dcar00 14367]

good job bowness...throw away a game by not having yoru best goalie between the pipes.  what a dumbass.

If I'm picking on players this series, Im not sure Janmark even comes up

[Bill Brasky 1461]

fucking pathetic 

[C-Man 27262]

Absolute, utter garbage. What a waste of my evening.

[Skipper 6202]

Now 0-4 over the past 2 years with a chance to move on to the conference finals.  What an absolute joke.

[Vic Mackey 47155]

Is this going to be another DFW meltdown as we do in great fashion?

[Surly Bevo 25153]

Hey Bowness




To your fucking grave.

I’m just impressed we had a 3-1 lead on the Avs. Outside of Miro the rest of the roster is a bunch of middling talent and multi-year slumping  “stars”

I am.

[vtaenz 602]

The puck control in our zone is laughable. Looks like a bunch of beer leaguers no-look panicking to try to get the puck out of the zone. It's inexcusable for professionals to revert to that type of play. This team makes it seem like they do not work on breakouts. If their first look isn't there and they are pressured they just panic. It's way more noticeable from the forwards. They look completely lost if they are deep in the zone and have the puck. They don't know where to go with the puck, they don't think they can play it back to the defensemen, they just try to get it out anyway possible which is as good as a turnover... just not in our own zone.

It's sucks all joy out trying to watch.

This is where I'm at, I was thinking we'd lose this series 4-1 or 4-2. Last 2 days have sucked but a game 7 exceeds my expectations

this is why you dont pull your best goalie even if it is a back to back.  you play to win the game(all due respect to the Herm)

[Beau Vine 54432]

So if Vancouver wins tomorrow, both western games will be on Friday.  I assume they'll start us at about 10pm?

Good thing immamac is starting up two new boards, as flawlessly as this one is working right now.

You don’t want to know. It won’t go anywhere.

Seguin is terrible for what he's paid

I think he's battling some kind of malady. Jamie's production-to-pay ratio is much worse.

Same for me except they're the walking wounded over there -- third-string goalie, missing best defenseman, etc. It doesn't get set up much better than that and I'm going to be pissed if we don't convert in Game 7. MacKinnon is other-worldly. The saucer-pass that Rantanen somehow put in was sublime on both ends.

I think we all hope that is the case considering he's under contract through 2027.  Ouch.

This.  And it isn't just the fact that we've lost the games that pisses me off.  It's how we lost them.  The effort to start game 5 was an absolute joke and disgrace.  Then last night stupid penalty after stupid penalty that were so obvious the refs had no choice but to call them.  If we stay out of the box in the first period we might have built a lead we never give up.  And the top line was just an embarrassment last night.

[Longhorn_Fan68 33899]

this series definitely sums up hockey for 2020

[C-Man 27262]

There’s no way this is right, right?

[Beau Vine 54432]

Considering that VGK-VAN haven't even started their G6, gonna guess no.

[C-Man 27262]

That would be dirty pool to play potentially late tonight and then come back and skate at noon tomorrow! LOL

[Loch Ness Monster 3533]

Thought I heard the Stars play at 3PM CT and Vegas/Vancouver the late game.

We’re on USA instead of NBCSN. 

[MonkeyDoughnut 10357]

Three game 7's this weekend!

Stars 3pm... game 7.... a little early but a hell of a lot better than another late, late game. Anything to shake the cobwebs off of the last few games
